Fhe 0nielAl Notice Of the Papal Decentralization
ofRev DR.. MeGlynn Of New York.
The long expected notice ives issued last
Sunday morning through the press and
telegraph; Be Il known that on May 4,
1881, the sacred congregation OF the prop
Uganda admonished Rev. DR.. Edward Me.
GlynR, late rector Of st. Stephens church,
New York, that he had already rendered
himself liable to ecclesiastical censure by
di~sobeying the positive command OF the
sovereign poutifL given Jan. II. Wishing.
however, to deal leniently with
him, the sacred congregation re-
training from issuing eensure, and Offering
him further opportunity to be heard in his
own behalf, gave him a final peremptory
order to present himself at Rome within
forty days from the receipt OF the letter
containing such order. under pain OF er.
communication. This letter was duly de-
nvered to Rev. DR.. McGlynp. As he allow
ed the days of grace to pass UNDECIDED, it
became our sad duty to notify him that
he incurred by his own act this penalty OF
accommodation by name. whereby
he is cut off from the com
munion OF the church. from it's saerements
and participation in its prayers, and
should he persevere in his contumney, de-
priyed of the rights after death TO Chris
tan burial. 1t becomes also our duty to

DR.. Edward McGlynn is accommodated,
with al the penalties attached to this
censure by the eanons Of the church.
MICHAEL AUGUSTINE,
Archbishop Of New York.
c. E. LoNNELL, Secretary.
On Sunday night the 10th inst, in New
York there were large meetings of MeGlynn
sympathisers-
DR.. MeGlynn was received with voeiierous
applause during the course OF his speech.
Tie said:
Our God is Il mereiiul as wen as q wise
one. He will never condemn any being
who follows the dictates OF his Conscience,
even be that conscience an erring one.
In obeying il he is forever obeyiDg the will
OF God. As il Is a dogma OF the Catholic
faith, and according to all Chris
tian philosophy and teaching. the man
who goes against his conscience sins against
the Holy Ghost. and despite the power OF
any authority, even the pope, If a man
does or says anything inobedience to that
power, ii IN so doing he goes against his
conscience. he sins. Even II a high Roman
tribunal Summons a man before them tor
teaching the truth which he knows to exist,
aud il that tribunal should condemn his
doctrines without giving them trial
and condemn him to Tetract them,
il is his duty before God to refuse
to do so lcheers) and ii ii was in its power,
as ut one time IL was, but, thank God, no
longer is, to imprison and martyr the
truth in the persons OF those who have
read Gods word in nature before they
have been able to see il. should they sum-
mon him and command him to retraet un-
der the penalty OF Imprisonment or mar
tyrdom, it is his duty to resist n even
be burned alive at the stake rather than
commit the nnpardona6le sin against the
Holy Ghost, OF declaring what his con-
science believed to be false" II you want
to see true devotion to the Catholic church
20 where it is in q minority and with little
power, as in Ireland aud Germany.
